White Christmas Margarita #Christmas

The holidays never tasted so desirable! Our White Christmas Margarita has all of the flavors of a widespread margarita with the addition of white cranberry juice and coconut. Make it for 2 or a crowd and positioned a little bit of tropical in your wintry weather cocktail.

I love my margaritas all 12 months lengthy, Carrot Margaritas for spring, Watermelon Margaritas for summer season and Apple Cider Margaritas for  fall, but these days I wanted to make one a little extra wintery to assist me get within the Christmas spirit way down right here in sunny Florida. And, being a Floridian, we've got masses of cocktails centered around coconut cream and cranberry juice so it seemed like no-brainer to add them to what I call my White Christmas Margarita.

Now, somehow I needed to try to preserve this drink on the white side, due to the fact that i was sure and decided to name this a White Christmas Margarita, so using normal cranberry juice simply wasn’t going to work. but wager what i found? They truly make a white cranberry juice! Woohoo! perfect answer!

I must have made as a minimum three or 4 unique batches (wheeeee!) yup, I needed to strive all of them, until I were given simply the right quantities of each factor to make it taste incredibly tropical & scrumptious. It’s basically a widespread margarita with the addition of white cranberry juice, coconut cream and, if you like (which i like) coconut rum too.
